Apple to patch more bugs with release of iOS 7.0.3 next week - report
Apple is rumored to roll out another minor update to iOS 7 next week, addressing several small and lingering issues in the company's latest mobile operating system.
iOS 7.0.3, sporting build number 11B491, has been released to employees and select external partners for testing, BGR reported on Tuesday. The new version is said to be made available in advance of iOS 7.1's expected reveal alongside new iPads at Apple's rumored October event.
The new build may address performance issues that have lingered since iOS 7's debut last month as well as new lock screen bypass security concerns that have surfaced since last week's iOS 7.0.2 release. For comparison, iOS 7.0.2 carries build number 11A501.
The same site incorrectly claimed that Apple would release a seventh beta of iOS 7 in August. Apple instead skipped from iOS beta 6 to iOS 7 Golden Master on Sept. 10.
Apple released iOS 7.0.1 with "bug fixes and improvements" as an over-the-air update for the iPhone 5s and 5c on the handsets' launch day, with iOS 7.0.2 following just six days later to address bugs related to lockscreen passcode security.

Not seeing any of this. Why do you think Apple needs to deal with your personal issues that hardly anyone else sees? Try troubleshooting your hosed updated instead.
I'm not seeing any problems with my 4S, either. I don't necessarily care for the thin fonts, colors scheme, and animations, but no problems, per se. Battery life did take a big hit, but it's much better after turning off a bunch of useless stuff that comes with iOS 7. At this point, I'd be okay if iOS 7 never happened.
Given the overwhelming number of negative comments since its release, I will definitely wait until iOS 7.1 before even considering updating - not to mention the fact that haven't yet accepted to use the POS called iTunes 11 (a pre-condition for iOS 7).
So far, so good%u2026 loving iOS7.
That said, I would like my finger print to some day work to authenticate all purchases ANYWHERE. Taking out a long password entry would be nice.

I have problems with iMessage, he is not the only one.

Why do you think Apple should ignore the bugs some are experiencing just because you're not?
I'm seeing lags, stuttering and sudden restarts on both my iPad 3 and iPhone 5.

Any iPhone 4 owner hasn't had Facetime connect to any incoming or outgoing calls since the last iOS 6 update before iOS7 came out, and it was never fixed in iOS7. So all iPhone 4 owners have had to revert to the poor relation of Skype.
I found that a little odd. Anyone else?

At least for iMessage...

I've seen it, myself. Just this morning, I noticed a message I sent at 7PM last night still said "sending". It's annoying. Through all the betas, too, I've experienced issues with iMessage on WiFi, but not LTE. I thought it was fixed with the GM, but it appears not. And now it's timing out on LTE, too.
A couple more:
Videos have lost their titles in the iPad Videos app. The work around is to tag them as home video but that does not always work.
If you play a conference video (like the ones from WWDC) and turn off the screen, the video stops playing. In earlier versions of iOS you could then press the play button on your headset controls and keep playing the audio with the screen off. This stopped working in some version of iOS 6 and is still broken. You can tell this is a bug because if you press the home button there is a play control on the lock screen that is non-functional when a video was playing. This bug sucks battery big time when you want to listen to conferences on walks and is ultra annoying since it is easy to touch the screen when your iPhone is in your pocket. BTW, WWDC videos are not available as audio only and have DRM so you can't easily rip the audio tracks. It is also nice to pull out the iPhone and look at the screen briefly when they are showing something you want to see.
